Navigating Volunteer Roles: A Letter to Eric Thomas on Inclusive Church Leadership.
Dear Eric: A letter writer sought advice on how to handle a situation with an older lady in church leadership who sometimes struggles with cognitive issues. The suggestion was to assign her the role of a greeter at events, allowing her to meet other church members and participate in a task that suits her abilities. This way, if she is unable to attend, the event can proceed without a greeter present. - Volunteer.
Dear Volunteer: Assigning the older lady the role of a greeter is a thoughtful solution that benefits both her and the church. Tailoring volunteer tasks to match her capabilities ensures that she can contribute meaningfully while feeling included in church activities. - R. Eric Thomas.
